✦ Synopsis

Many bacteria respond in a coordinate manner to environmental changes. External stimuli, sensed by receptors, are transduced to regulatory proteins which participate in well defined pathways of gene expression by varying their structure and mode of action. The network of environmental signal transduction is responsible for a fine and continuous communication between the host and the pathogenic bacteria. As a result, the gene expression machinery of the pathogen is modified continuously, in order to establish the optimal conditions for bacterial survival and multiplication.

Sensing and responding to environmental signals is a crucial element of bacterial pathogenicity. For a successful progression of infection, virulence gene expression is coordinated in response to habitat-specific environmental signals from the host organism. We are interested in identifying environm

## Abstract Enzymic cleavage of N‐glycosidic bonds of AMP, GMP, and inosine by the cell‐free extracts of __Neurospora crassa__ has been studied. The enzymic activities with these substrates appear to be discrete from one another. The levels of these enzymes in the cell vary with age, and are depend
